ABSTRACT

Disclosed is a composition for soft contact lenses which enables to suppress adsorption of a basic chemical substance onto a soft contact lens. This composition for soft contact lenses comprises (A) a basic chemical substance selected from amines having a secondary amino group and/or a tertiary amino group and salts thereof, and (B) one or more substances selected from amino acids and salts thereof, acid mucopolysaccharides and salts thereof and cyclodextrin, while having a pH of 3.5 to 4.8. Also disclosed is a method for suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance onto a soft contact lens.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This invention relates to a composition for soft contact lenses including a basic chemical substance selected from amines containing a secondary amino group and/or a tertiary amino group and salts thereof, and also to a method for suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance above-stated on a soft contact lens.

BACKGROUND ART

When soft contact lenses are worn, the lens surface tends to be getting dry and be deposited with pollen and pollutant substances that may cause allergic symptoms such as itchiness, inflammatory hyperemia and the like. Accordingly, there has been long demanded a composition for users of soft contact lenses, which contains an anti-inflammatory component, an antihistamine component or an anti-hyperemic component.

For the anti-inflammatory, antihistamine or anti-hyperemic component, there are known basic compounds containing a secondary amino group and/or a tertiary amino group. These basic chemical substances have high affinity for soft contact lenses, so that when used as a composition for users of soft contact lens, they have the possibility of being adsorbed on the lens surface and accumulated inside the lens as time passes, thus giving an adverse influence on the physical properties and the usability during wear of the lenses and also on the side effect thereof in some cases. In order to allow adaptation for the use of soft contact lenses, it is essential to suppress the basic chemical substance from being adsorbed on the lens.

Several methods of suppressing adsorption of chemical substances on a soft contact lens have been hitherto proposed including a method of suppressing adsorption of lipid soluble vitamins with a polymeric compound and a nonionic surface active agent (see Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-158734) and a method of suppressing adsorption of dipotassium glycyrrhizinate with an amino acid or the like (see Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-2563). However, ophthalmic compositions for suppressing adsorption, on soft contact lenses, of such a basic chemical substance as set out above have never been developed yet. Although there are known a method of suppressing adsorption of chlorpheniramine maleate on a container while controlling a pH of the composition to 5 to 6 (see Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-249445) and a method of suppressing adsorption on a container by formulating cyclodextrin (see Patent Document 4: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-359679), no method of suppressing adsorption on soft contact lenses has been known. It is to be noted that prior art literatures related to the present invention are mentioned below.

The component (B) of the invention is one or more of those selected from amino acids and salts thereof, acidic mucopolysaccharides and salts thereof and cyclodextrins. The incorporating of the component (B) into the composition for soft contact lenses containing the basic chemical substance (A) enables the basic chemical substance (A) to be suppressed from adsorption on a soft contact lens. Of the components (B), an acidic mucopolysaccharide and a salt thereof are preferred because of lessened irritation at a low pH.

The preferred amino acids and salts thereof include L-glutamic acid, epsilon aminocaproic acid, L-aspartic acid and salts thereof (salts of alkali metals such as Na, K and the like, and ammonium salts). Specific examples include L-glutamic acid, epsilon aminocaproic acid, L-aspartic acid, sodium L-glutamate, potassium L-aspartate, magnesium L-aspartate, potassium magnesium L-aspartate and salts thereof. They may be used singly or in appropriate combination of two or more.

When the amino acid and a salt thereof are used, the amount of the amino acid and its salt is preferably 0.01 to 3 w/v %, more preferably 0.025 to 1 w/v %, in the composition for soft contact lenses. If the amount is smaller, the effect of suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance on a soft contact lens may become unsatisfactory in some case. Over 3 w/v %, usability may lower.

When the acidic mucopolysaccharide and a salt thereof are used, the amount of the acidic mucopolysaccharide and its salt is preferably 0.01 to 1 w/v %, more preferably 0.025 to is 0.5 w/v % in the composition for soft contact lenses. If the amount is smaller, the effect of suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance on a soft contact lens may become unsatisfactory in some case. Over 1 w/v %, a viscous feeling may be shown after use.

When the cyclodextrin is used, the amount of the cyclodextrin is preferably 0.01 to 3 w/v %, more preferably 0.05 to 1 w/v %, in the composition for soft contact lenses. If the amount is smaller, the effect of suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance on a soft contact lens may become unsatisfactory in some case. Over 3 w/v %, solubility may become worsened.

It is preferred to incorporate a monoterpenoid compound and/or a sesquiterpenoid compound into the composition for soft contact lenses of the invention. Essential oils containing these compounds may also be used. More particularly, examples include camphor, cool mint No. 71212, geraniol, mint water, menthol, borneol, eucalyptus oil, fennel oil, bergamot oil, linalool, N-ethyl-p-menthane-carboxyamide (e.g., WS-3, made by Takasago International Corporation) and the like. The amount of these compounds is preferably 0.0001 to 0.1 w/v % in the composition for soft contact lenses. Moreover, the amount made in the range of 0.0005 to 0.03 w/v % is more preferred because of an effect of mitigating an irritation.

Further, a buffering agent is preferably incorporate into the composition for soft contact lenses of the invention. Examples of the buffering agent include one or two or more of those selected from boron-based buffering agents such as boric acid, borax and the like, acetic acid-based buffering agents such as acetic acid, sodium acetate, potassium acetate and the like, phosphoric acid-based buffering agents such as sodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate and the like, carbonic is acid-based buffering agents such as sodium carbonate, sodium hydrogen carbonate and the like, citric acid-based buffering agents such as citric acid, sodium citrate and the like, and trometamol.

From the standpoint of the preservative efficacy, boric acid, trometamol or a mixture of boric acid-trometamol (boric acid and trometamol used in combination) is more preferred.

When the buffering agent is used, the amount is preferably 0.01 to 2 w/v %, more preferably 0.001 to 1 w/v % and further more preferably 0.05 to 0.5 w/v %, in the composition for soft contact lenses. If the amount is smaller, the stability of pH may not be maintained. Over 2 w/v %, the buffer power becomes so intense that an irritation may be felt in a low pH region.

Further, Q represented by the following equation as indicating a buffer power is preferably at 18 ml or below. Within this range, there can be obtained a composition whose irritation is low. More preferably, the value is at 14 ml or below. The lower limit of Q is preferably at least 5 ml. At smaller than 5 ml, the pH stability of the composition for soft contact lenses may become unsatisfactory in some cases.

Q=QHCl+QNaOH

(wherein QHCl: an amount (ml) of 0.1 mol/l of HCl necessary for lowering 100 g of a composition to a pH of 3.5, and QNaOH: an amount (ml) of 0.1 mol/l of NaOH necessary for raising 100 g of a composition to a pH of 7.5)

If the pH is too small, an irritation may become intense. Over 4.8, the effect of suppressing adsorption of the basic chemical substance on an ionic soft contact lens becomes unsatisfactory. The measurement of pH is carried out by use of a pH osmometer (HOSM-1, made by DKK-Toa Corporation). The pH adjuster includes, for example, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid or the like. These may be used singly or in combination of two or more. From the standpoint of providing a composition whose preservative power is good, the pH should be low and is preferably at 3.9 or below, and when the pH is 3.5 to 3.9 and Q represented by the above equation is at 18 ml or below, it is possible to obtain a composition for soft contact lenses which is excellent in preservation efficacy and low in irritation to eyes if not containing an irritative preservative.

Test 1: Test of Suppressing Adsorption of a Basic Chemical Substance

(Basic Chemical Substance Adsorption Test on a Soft Contact Lens: n=3)

From four groups of soft contact lenses defined by FDA (Food and Drug Administration of the United States), there were used, as typical lenses, four types of lenses including “SeeQuence™” (made by Bausch & Lomb Japan), “Seed 14UV” (made by Seed Inc.), “Hi-Flow Ace” (made by Hoya Corporation), and “ACUVUE®” (made by Johnson and Johnson K.K.). One lens was immersed in 5 ml of a composition for soft contact lenses at 37° C. for 7 days, and an amount of the basic chemical substance in the residual solution was quantitatively determined by liquid chromatography. A composition for soft contact lenses in which no lens was immersed was similarly treated to provide a control. From a ratio to an amount of the basic chemical substance in the control, an adsorption ratio (%) of a basic chemical substance for four types of lenses was calculated according to the following equation:

[(amount of a basic chemical substance in the control−an amount of the basic chemical substance in the residual solution)/amount of the basic chemical substance in the control×100].

Three measurements against one composition for soft contact lenses were carried out for every four types of lenses. The results are summarized such that an average adsorption ratio for every types of lens was calculated and a maximum adsorption ratio selected among the average adsorption ratios of the respective lenses was shown. And evaluation was shown according to the following evaluation standards. It will be noted that where two or more of basic chemical substances are contained, a maximum average adsorption ratio is selected among average adsorption ratios of all the basic chemical substances and shown.
